IMHO moving the boundary to a /56 is completely missing the boat on

Agreed!
That rounds up to 16 subnets and doubles up to 32 subnets. That would
require 5 bits for subnetting or a /59
I'm not trying to suggest that this is the right number, but rather
that
we should take this sort of approach.
I actually think that is a policy to be determined by the RIRs...
